Barefaced naked lady alert

Me and Bolt Collage

Last week I was invited to a spotty event that I loved. I walked out of the elevator, followed the paw prints on the floor and was greeted by the lovely folk at Garnier and their spotty friend ‘Bolt’ the Dalmation puppy. He was soft and cuddly and a little sleepy, but to my delight, [...]

My fully sick germ warfare plan

crashgirl

Proudly sponsored by Bisolvon I’m sick of being sick, so I’m putting my foot down and doing something about it. And my motives are completely selfish.  If I’m not sick on a daycare day then the kids are! I only get two days a week to myself to work – a whole 12 hours and [...]

“All you need is a heartfelt reason” Yesterday I started my Sugar Crash Challenge – an 8 week program to quit sugar by Sarah Wilson.  I’m completely freaking out because I love sugar and I’m afraid of failing – very publicly.  But I’m also excited because people are joining me in the challenge.  I won’t [...]

You’ve got to accentuate the positive . . .

Beautiful CrashGirl

Beautiful CrashGirl “You’ve got to accentuate the positive Eliminate the negative Latch on to the affirmative Don’t mess with Mister In-Between” So the song says, and I’m inclined to agree.  I just need to follow through! I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve been feeling a bit blah about the start of the New [...]

Crash Hot

I need my head read for doing this – seriously! You need to be very kind, OK? This is the first time I have seen myself exercising on video – it is hard to watch. Hopefully it gets better as I get fitter and hotter ;). It is also my first attempt at creating a [...]
